I don't worry with wear since during a rebuild, we use a WD40 product on all pins, rollers, clevis and tracks on the braking system so they have lubrication.

Again, I see no need to preload or twist the rod although I doubt doing it would affect anything as the minute amount of twist would likely be disbursed on a 40+ inch rod.
